Dexmedetomidine for kidney protection in sepsis
This trial tests if dexmedetomidine, a sedative, can help protect the kidneys of critically ill patients with sepsis who develop acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It is for adults in the ICU who need a breathing tube or mask within 48 hours of kidney injury.
CairoAges 18–90 - NCT07718464Recruiting
AKI risk test for children in the ICU
This study tests a new way to find children in the pediatric ICU who are at risk for serious kidney injury early, so doctors can start treatment sooner. Your child's kidney stress markers will be checked from a blood or urine sample.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT07683975RecruitingPhase 4
Infliximab for kidney injury caused by immunotherapy
This study tests whether infliximab can treat kidney damage caused by immune checkpoint inhibitor cancer therapy. It aims to see if this medication helps patients recover kidney function after injury from their cancer treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07685587Recruiting
Comparing two types of ureteral access sheaths for kidney stone surgery
This trial compares two methods used during surgery to treat kidney stones. It looks at whether one type of tube (a fan-shaped access sheath) causes less kidney injury after surgery than the standard tube. This could help patients have a safer recovery.
TekirdağAges 18 years+ - NCT05346393Recruiting
TIPS procedure for kidney failure in people with cirrhosis
This trial studies whether a liver procedure called TIPS can help people with cirrhosis who develop sudden kidney failure (HRS-AKI). It aims to improve kidney function and overall outcomes, but participation depends on several safety checks.
AachenAges 18–80 - NCT07638306Recruiting
Neck Vein Ultrasound and Kidney Function After Abdominal Surgery
This study uses ultrasound to look at a vein in your neck before and after major abdominal surgery to understand how surgery affects your kidneys. Researchers hope this simple imaging technique might help predict and prevent kidney problems after surgery.
Târgu Mureş, Mureș CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07635160Recruiting
Kidney Blood Flow Monitoring During Minimally Invasive Abdominal Surgery
This research study tests two imaging methods—ultrasound and a special light-based scanner—to monitor how well your kidneys receive blood during minimally invasive abdominal surgery. The goal is to understand kidney function better during this type of operation.
IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT05344573Recruiting
Testing better blood-flow rhythms during heart bypass surgery
This trial studies ways to control the “pulsatility” (how the blood pressure pulses during circulation) while you are on a heart-lung bypass machine. It may help improve safety and heart function during planned heart surgery.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 50–70 - NCT07627880Recruiting
Kidney Stone Blockage: Best Drainage Method Before Removal
This study compares two ways to drain urine when a kidney stone completely blocks the ureter (the tube from kidney to bladder) in patients with only one working kidney. After your kidney recovers, doctors will remove the stone using a minimally invasive camera procedure.
Banī Suwayf, Beni Suweif GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07617948RecruitingPhase 2
Aminophylline injection to help place ureteral stent for kidney stone blockage
This trial tests whether injecting aminophylline (a medication that relaxes muscles) into the bladder can help doctors place a stent (small tube) to relieve a blocked ureter caused by a kidney stone. The goal is to improve kidney function when one kidney is blocked and not working.
Banī Suwayf, Beni Suweif GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT06021288Recruiting
Standard vs. lower dose dialysis for kidney failure in intensive care
This trial compares the usual dose of continuous dialysis with a lower dose to see if a lower dose is just as safe and effective for critically ill patients with sudden kidney failure.
MünsterAges 18 years+ - NCT06714409Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided fluid removal in hospitalized heart failure
This study tests whether using ultrasound-guided treatment to reduce fluid buildup in the body can help people hospitalized for worsening heart failure feel better faster. It's for adults admitted with heart failure and high BNP levels.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT00948116Recruiting
Blood and urine tests to predict kidney injury in diabetes
This study checks whether a set of blood and urine tests can predict “acute kidney injury” (a sudden worsening of kidney function) earlier in people with diabetes who are undergoing a heart procedure. If the tests work, they may help doctors spot kidney trouble sooner and protect your kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06714214Recruiting
Predicting when you can stop kidney dialysis
This trial studies whether a blood test called delta C-cistatin can help doctors predict when patients can safely stop continuous kidney dialysis after acute kidney injury.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05830669Recruiting
